Shulyak: “The war showed who is who and how well government decisions are made”

The head of the Servant of the People party said that after the war the system of government should be changed and relied on professionals.

The framework of the new Ukraine is set today, when in the country continues a full-scale war unleashed by Russia. In an interview with ZN.UA, Olena Shulyak, the head of the Servant of the People party, spoke with Inna Vedernikova about how she sees the main parameters of the Ukrainian state after the war.

“It is important for the government to maintain an honest view of today's reality and to conduct a full audit after the war of what and why happened to us. At the level of public administration in the first place. The war showed who is who; how well government decisions are made; whether they make any sense at all, whether they are needed/not needed in the state; Do all existing institutions justify themselves? What to do with these or other authorities? How to deal with some personalities? There should be the same answers to direct questions, “Shulyak said.

She added that she was internally afraid of indecision.. Whereas after the war the system of government must be seriously changed. There should be competent people at all levels and in all areas.

“And this is probably the main parameter. At present, everything and everyone is very visible. If a professional works at the site, he can quickly navigate his own and pick up what is in contact. If a person is off topic, then we suffer losses on the domestic front. The lives of people depend on the decision made – effective or not, “added the leader of the SN party.

In addition, according to Shulyak, the state machine needs to be optimized as much as possible . On the one hand, reduce/merge part of the central government (CEB), including the goals of the ministry. On the other hand, add the ones that are missing.

“I will not criticize specific ministers and leaders of the Central Election Commission right now. After the war, we will tell each other everything we think in order to move on in our new capacity. However, the first example of institutions is immigrants. No one could have predicted that Russia would strike across the country and we would get the problem of the seven million people who left their homes. We do not have such a state institution that would deal with migrants comprehensively (registration, transit/temporary/permanent housing, employment) “, – said Shulyak.
